Gu Hanping nodded: "Yes, this fertilizer is very expensive."

One jin (500g) of fertilizer costs one yuan, and about ten jin (5kg) of fertilizer is needed for one mu (0.067 hectares) of land.

Too much input was used, and the yield per mu was only 400 to 500 jin. With the use of chemical fertilizers, it would probably be around 500 jin.

In reality, it's not worth it.

The increase in fertilizer production was not as significant as expected.

It only increases the yield by 50 jin per mu.

But the investment is huge.

But there isn't enough food to eat, even without chemical fertilizers.

In the past, they would dilute the fertilizer before using it.

The Red Flag Brigade simply couldn't buy enough fertilizer.

Even if you don't get a sufficient return on this investment, you still have to put it in.

Gu Yunyang comforted him, "It's alright. Didn't our hunting team earn over a hundred before? We also saved some money for fertilizer. Let's take it all out and buy the fertilizer first. With the fertilizer formula I brought, our harvest this year should be better than last year's."

Gu Hanping thought about it and realized it made sense; the brigade would have an extra source of income this year.

And the sugar-making workshop also started operations today.

There will be some income later.

The market outlook is definitely going to get better and better.

After comforting Gu Hanping, Gu Yunyang suggested that they quickly put the lychees in the well to chill them before they spoiled.

Get up early tomorrow morning and head straight to the city.

After arranging these things, Gu Hanping then instructed someone to keep an eye on the chilled lychees in several wells.

This thing is worthless under other circumstances.

But even though it's not lychee season yet, they're still very valuable.

We can't let the villagers mess it up.

The squad leaders all supported this decision.

If you want to eat lychees, the orchards of the brigade will have a large number of lychees ripening after a while.

Eat whatever you like then.

Not now.

Gu Yunyang turned around and called Yang Shengnan and Han Xue to come home for dinner.

At lunchtime, because they had invited quite a few people over, the two girls felt embarrassed to sit down and eat together.

That night, I called them to have another meal together.

The rabbit that I caught when I went up the mountain with Fang Qingyuan was also given to Qin Wanwan and the others.

Fortunately, there were quite a few rabbits in Gu Yunyang's base space.

Rabbits are such fast-reproducing creatures that if they have no natural predators, they could really become overpopulated.

Fortunately, Gu Yunyang had the housekeeping robots deal with some of the problem in time, otherwise they would have become rampant.

Gu Yunyang made some spicy rabbit heads and spicy rabbit meat, planning to take them to the city tomorrow as a gift for Director He and his team.

If you want someone to do something, it's not right not to give them something in return.

Nothing happened that night, and Gu Yunyang was already up at three o'clock the next morning.

He has good energy; he only needs four or five hours of sleep a night to be full of energy.

I'm not tired at all.

Moreover, you can meditate at any time to restore your physical and mental energy.

When we came down the mountain and arrived at the brigade headquarters, we saw Gu Hanping lecturing people.

"What's wrong, Captain?"

Hearing the sound, Gu Hanping turned around and saw Gu Yunyang: "You're up?"

What he really wanted to say was that it wouldn't hurt to sleep a little longer.

But thinking about getting to the city, even with an oxcart, it would probably take more than three hours.

It's better to leave early.

If the sun comes out, it will wilt all the fruit.

"It's alright, just a few scoundrels trying to steal our stored lychees. And these night watchmen, if I hadn't gotten up to check on them last night, they probably would have all been stolen."

Gu Yunyang looked over, and the men on night watch seemed a little embarrassed.

They also wanted to argue.

They're all from the same brigade, who knew they wouldn't care about the villagers?

They even tried to steal the lychees that the village used to buy fertilizer.

Those who stole the lychees didn't dare to speak, and Gu Ergou was among them.

The others were all cunning and sly young men from several villages in the brigade.

Gu Yunyang was speechless.
